Let's see, let's see. Where to start.
I'm tired of life as I know it. Well, I've been tired of it for the past year and have been craving a change of some sort. So over this past year I've been pondering on what to do to change my life so that I'm not so stressed, lonely, and generally unhappy with myself and what's around me. I enlisted in the Navy. Right now I'm in the DEP (Delayed Entry Program) until late fall or winter and then I start boot camp. After that two months it's off to Maryland for eight months. And I will never come back to this place to live again. I'll come back and visit my close friends when I can, but other than that I really do hate this place. Central Illinois, I mean. The job I've taken is an MC (Mass Communications Specialist) so even though lots of people won't see me, they'll see my photos on the Navy website. Or my own, should I choose to keep one. Until I leave I'm training for boot camp. Laying off the cigarettes, running, jumping, doing cartwheels, but most importantly counting down the days until I'm out of here for good. I've seen way too many people move in with their others and get stuck, or have kids and get stuck, or get married and get stuck here for the rest of their lives. Not happening to me. If I get stuck here I'm sure to put a bullet in my head. So goodbye. And good luck.
